Testimonials




“So Cal Construction has performed five different jobs for me at my home. All were performed expediently, professionally, with quality workmanship, on budget, and with excellent clean-up. These include a kitchen remodel, a chimney reconstruction, two high voltage cable pulls, a roof leak, and significant termite damage repair. John provides a detailed estimate of the job at hand and is very willing to discuss alternative solutions/options for each phase of the project including material choices, design considerations, cost containment, and project management. He also worked with me to determine if there were portions of each job that I could do myself to save on the cost. The So Cal team was always on site when planned. They were prepared, courteous, and very clean during the jobs on a daily basis. The check boxes in this recommendation on LinkedIn specify that you must choose three attributes. While I marked three, I consider So Cal worthy of a check in every box on the list. I highly recommend So Cal Construction. I will use them again for further projects without hesitation.

“John, and So Cal Construction & Design have done two jobs for our family, a master bathroom gut and re-design, and an outside multi-deck makeover. Both jobs were done well, at the cost quoted. His crew was on-time every day, and took pains to leave the jobs and surrounding areas clean and open to use in spite of the construction. His crew stayed focused on our jobs and did not delay our work due to other jobs, a problem all too common with many contractors. A good experience, and good work!”

“I have had the privilege of working with John Thomson for the last six months on a 1940′s designed Craftsman style house I purchased in very poor condition.  Because of John’s imagination and skill a beautiful and very special house is being reconstructed. I purchased this home to be near my sons and their families and my expectations of the final product were  modest.  Because of John’s willingness to look at possibilities and his expectations and demand for excellent craftsmanship, the end product far exceeds my hopes and expectations but stayed fairly close to my budget. Perhaps the most significant aspect of John’s work on my house is that every part of the work has been well thought out with great attention to the details that are part of a beautifully constructed home.  I appreciate John’s creative and skillful talents highly recommend him.”

“As a property manager, I have been working with John for almost 2 years. He has been exactly what you would hope for in a contractor. Hiring someone to work on your home, or someone elses home can be very stressful and tricky. You want to ensure that they would treat it as their own. That is what John Thompson has done. I really appreciate his respect that he has given to me and to my clients. John has always made sure to keep me informed on every project and it’s status. He completes the work in a VERY timely mannner and has gone out of his way several times. I can remember one specific time, when he was working on a roof project. It had started to rain and my first thought was about how the house was going to be destroyed with the weather. 10 minutes later, I recieved a phone call from him and he was already at the house covering the roof to insure that there would be no rain damage. This is the kind of treatment that you will recieve from So Cal Construction. They are responsible, reliable, and most of all respectful. I refuse to use any other contractor after seeing how John works. I will always continue to use him in the future! Thank you John and So Cal Construction for making my life easier!”
